Do you think that a big part of that could be the financial incentive to be "popular" on Twitter?

I mean, on hacker news it doesn't seem like a person gains any long term advantage from having their posts engaged with and upvoted. That is to say, the focus is on the content and not on the profiles/usernames.

There is no explicit advertising and most content is posted to create interesting discussion about it.

For me, the idea of twitter style micro blogging itself is a turn off. I always thought the arbitrary character limit was inherently a bad idea and "threads" are a terrible solution. Threads force one to split up a message and allow pieces of it to be taken out of context, retweeted and even quoted. Threads are a great propaganda tool because with every follow up "part", engagement decreases. People see the first part of a thread and only look at that, social behavior that can be abused when posting. Even it's main feature set is antithetical to accurately publishing information. It gets much worse when official institutions use it as their official communications channel and a login gate is in place.

I actually don't even think this is malicious but moreso bad design and failure to anticipate what rhe platform could turn into when it was first conceived.
But you're an edge case, and an extreme one at that.
What is the ad hominem attack here?

Anyways, the "right" you have to explicit sexual consent is not really there. In that, you cannot go to court and say "I said no" and get any meaningful damages or a conviction without other evidence. Similarly, courts treat these popups as essentially unreadable and you cannot go to court and say "They clicked "Allow"" and get away with anything unreasonable.

Ha! I almost said that to OP who stares off into space while at the bus stop, but hey.
I guess the benefit would be possibly higher SEO / DR, as you'd have a lot of backlinks scattered around the interwebs. But then it can be misused and then all your domain can also be trashed.

I believe this is probably beneficial for bigger companies / VC funded projects where they have the resources for moderation.
Not talking about DDD here, but the linked article describes this as his alternative approach.

Is this how you think about everything? Do you go to a restaurant with nice chairs and think, "The food here must suck, they spend too much money on the furniture"?
Nah I think twitter is among the worst. It doesn't actually make you more informed of anything actionable you'd actually benefit from being aware of. It just broadcasts the most shallow rage-bait possible, from a constantly updating stream of pointless arguments and mentally ill strangers.

It honestly decreased my baseline well-being far faster than anything else, even when I'd just try to follow the most insular network of math academics and art people. At least tiktok was vaguely more positive and the occasional gnome footage or afghan giant conspiracy was fun.
For typo resistance and stemming it’s useful. Mostly it depends if your search matching logic needs to do allocation per document, like if you need to concatenate 10 strings together to get the complete search text and then split that into some kind of stem array, doing that O(thousands) of times per keystroke can be laggy in JS especially on memory constrained devices because GC pressure. Better to do it once up front. Then voila, you’ve got an index.

> After all that, I think the concept of a ubiquitous language is excellent. Everyone should standardize on a common set of vocabulary. We even took it so far as to have a dictionary of our business domain terms. It's so obvious in hindsight that it seems completely foolish to do anything else.

See, while I have very limited experience actually writing code in DDD style (and at the time, because I hadn't read the book or followed any course, terms like "aggregate" were pretty alien to me), I can really see the benefit of the DDD approach to mapping out and defining a problem space or company; ubiquitous language, bounded contexts (a "customer" may be different depending on whether you ask frontline customer support vs corporate support), and just mapping out the flows and processes of how a company or part thereof are just super valuable. Because a lot of the ones I've worked for as a consultant (read: code robot for hire) seem to rely a lot on a number of key people or departments that have this knowledge in their head, while IMO it should be a central "database" of the One Truth that everything else in the company follows from, including software.

And if the processes and requirements are clear, then software will follow, whether they do DDD practices or not.

Yes the popular vitus and alan aluminium frames of the late 80's to mid 90's had aluminium tubes glued to aluminium lugs. Also many early carbon frames of that era from TVT, Alan, Vitus, Trek, Giant or Specialized) were built the same way with carbon tubes and aluminium lugs. In the early 2000's there were also some frames with an alu front triangle and a carbon rear triangle bonded together. Usually they were mid tier bikes below full carbon ones.

This is still a popular method for frames built with mixed materials.
I don't know where you're from, but in the US, the average spot I'd be killing time in is surrounded by acres of parking lots and a busy stroad or two. A Tamagotchi or 1980s pocket calculator is more engaging.

The difference is that you can take your phone with you but the same can't be true for the TV or the gaming console. That's a big factor.

I suspect more people would have bought Apple Vision if it was cheaper/more affordable. I suspect a lot more people would have bought it if it was 1/2 weight at $1000 and didn't require that dangling battery. The future will be people with their phones hooked to their faces.
Peaceful actions also harm people. Any transition to clean energy harms at least some people (for example executives and share holders of oil companies). The more important question is if the benefit outweighs the harm, and if the harm stays below some threshold of "unjustifiable harm".

I don't see how infrastructure is somehow special in this.
I don't actually use my phone for much. Taking photos, making phone calls. I'm not the kind of person who lives on their phone. I live on my laptop (which has Location Services disabled entirely).

I don't even use Photos app on Mac anymore. They've ruined it compared to the old iPhoto. I just keep my photos in folders in Finder.
I agree that there is currently a problem in the job market. It would make sense to temporarily pause the H-1B program for candidates with only a bachelor's degree. It should still be open for those with masters and PhD degrees.

Users of my (free, open-source) app seem surprised to learn that we've got zero insight into usage patterns. There are situations where a small amount of anonymous telemetry would be extremely helpful but I'm not going to touch it with a barge-pole.

Opt-in makes the data useless - not just in terms of the huge drop in quantity but because of the fact it introduces a huge bias in the data selected - the people that would opt-in are probably not a good sample of "typical users".

Opt-out - no matter what safeguards or assurances I could provide is unacceptable to a subset of users and they will forcefully communicate this to you.

Don't get me wrong - I understand both the ease at which bad actors abuse telemetry and the ease in which "anonymous data" can prove to be nothing of the kind in a multitude of surprising ways.

But it's hard not to feel a little sad in a "this is why we can't have nice things" kind of way.
That’s basically the scam. At the end he has her bet one extra time and she loses. Except it’s revealed that Darren Brown had swapped out her ticket for the winning ticket somehow. Very likely he just placed bets on all horses and then did a sleight of hand to give her the winning ticket before she opened it. In other words he spent $20k of the show’s budget placing bets on all 5 horses and gave her the $13k of the winnings that were reclaimed from having bought a winning ticket.

The only thing that's more ridiculous than an antiquated dress code is an antiquated dress code that's selectively applied to some players and not to others. Other players had to change, so FIDE could hardly make an exception for Carlsen. If Carlsen cares so little about the tournament that he can't even be bothered to change his pants, he should probably not have participated in the first place.
About 20 years ago I was in Portugal and remember it was a TGV project that didn't take off. It was supposed to connect to Madrid I believe. I imagine that politics and money created this issue.

We know that niche stuff like Daraprim or trientine is easy to produce because it used to be cheap before the financializers got there. I'm not yet convinced that the solution is to cook your own, one should lean on the government to have a national facility.

I love this. DDD is a great tool for the right job. Unfortunately I've often seen it used for strange use cases that don't fit.
This was more convincing to me than the GP comment, especially the shell prompt part.
That’s not good news, because this article is dead wrong about many ddd concepts. For instance, the very first list item:

> DDD is against the idea of having a single unified model

Is wrong: DDD is not against the idea of an application having a single unified model.

Bounded contexts exist to help you understand the organization, and, specifically, that different people may use the same word with a different meaning. But if your application serves a single group in the company where definitions are shared, there is no reason for your code to leverage multiple bounded contexts, and their existence may be limited to a footnote in the project’s business glossary doc.
I'm tempted to guess where you were that this occurred (A large payroll/benefits software company - maybe even the ultimate one...)

But then again this story has probably happened thousands of times...

A web app to read Latin texts with inline translations
After finishing DuoLingo’s Latin course, I wanted to read some Latin texts, but I didn't find easy enough texts and going back and forth to a dictionary was cumbersome.

So I created this app for reading basic Latin texts. The idea of the app is to have a Latin text with translation of each word under the paragraph line, which makes it easy to grasp the meaning but also focuses on reading the original Latin text.

It only has one book, if I finish it I might add others.

I used OpenAI to do the translation which looks pretty good for me, with the caveat that... well... I do not know Latin. This approach will not probably work for more complex texts.

This mode of reading works for me, not sure if is of interest to anyone else.

The app source is on GitHub if you are interested:

> Do you have a job where you rely on a single employer for most of your income?

I can look for another employer if I have issue with mine. There is more than youtube but the number of alternative platforms where you can monetize your stuff are much smaller than the number of companies where I could find a job so there is that.

> An employer that can fire you at any time?

There are many places in this world where an employer can't fire you at any time and for any reason. There are even jobs where you really can't get fired unless you are really looking for it.

> At least creators have more control over their income.

Not sure control is the right word. They are bound to the market.

> The business dress code was 'pants', jeans were not allowed.

'jeans' literally are 'pants' though. If a dress code specifies pants, jeans are fine, unless they specifically exclude jeans as a type of pants.
One lesson of monetary history is that once you create a market, like bureaucracies, it is hard to remove. Historically, this is why new conquering rulers enact new taxes and install new markets. Meaning, Bitcoin might never really fail, although I'm skeptical any market really exists for its use now.

I believe I read somewhere, possibly from Musk and Starlink, that "they've" designed a fallback for crypto so that it will continue to run even in a total grid-down situation. (If anyone recalls where this was, please point me to it, so I can save the article)

Personally, I think Bitcoin was likely created by a government and will be used as a "freedom!!!!," anti-CBDC digital currency, essentially tricking gullible people into the now pervasive surveillance state.

Right. We all know the best chips in the world are made by local artisan silicon-etchers. None of that TSMC pasteurized crap. You simply can't beat a 1nm brush and a steady hand.
We all know this industrial revolution thing was a mistake.
I read an article that said something along the lines of people aren't prepared to pay for apps, so instead we get app store silo advert supported crap-ware.

That a firm like them even exists is symptomatic of greater systemic design flaws.

You talk about C and C++ yet call Ada "ancient," C from 1969 and C++ from 1979.

This is true for change in general.

To that end, the obvious answer to the person in that opening ceremony is "if people had further picture of the impact" [1].

Justice is in the eye of the beholder. The way they can make people sympathize with their intents of sabotage is by providing a justification, and enabling people to provide themselves one of their own. Otherwise, people will work with what they have, and what they have is mostly just their moral standards.

Evidently, the thread starter's moral standards do not condone this. Mine don't either. The way one can change this is by providing more information that would enable us to change our minds. This isn't really what's happening so far (although neither sides are communicating in a way that would make an open ended discussion of this super viable).

[1] and have that picture be such that it supports their conclusion. Note how this doesn't mean that picture must be:

- truthful

- balanced

- reasonable

And provided all parties are aware of this, they'll be more critical and suspecting of the other. For good reasons, I'd say.
What’s wrong with the hex-and-dash representation? It’s the textual representation recommended by RFC 9562, and it’s immediately recognizable as a UUID.

There’s also a URN namespace defined for it, if an absolute URI is needed or if one wants to be more explicit:

Not sure what bias it adds

And then show human readable form of what data was collected.

Well, considering the messy state of the different charging ports, that would not have been a bad idea either. I do not think it would have stopped usb-c from taking over, in the same way that the current legislation does not prevent revising it.

Standardisation is a good thing over all, and, for good or for worse, it often requires governmental entities to move it forward. If anything, it also creates a leveling field that promotes innovation for what really matters. Only big tech love the alternative, as part of sustaining an oligopolic status.
Once it took me a full day Paris - Geneva, which included travelling back to Paris when we were about midway, only to return to Geneva when about 100km close to Paris, stopping in the middle of nowhere to get the bar refilled, as everyone went there, and a voucher to use in another TGV travel within one year.
